It lets a small UAE business pay no Corporate Tax for a tax year. It works if your business earned 3,000,000 AED or less in that tax year and in every earlier one. “Earned” means all money in, before costs and without VAT (even the sale of a business item counts). You choose it yourself when you file your return. It is open for tax years ending by 31 December 2029 (Ministerial Decision 131 of 2026). Free zone businesses using the free zone 0% rate and very large international groups cannot use it. You must still register, file a return and keep your records.

You pick a plan. While payments are not open (beta), picking a plan keeps SoloBooks free for you. No card is asked at sign-up. If you do not pick one, your data stays readable and exportable; adding new documents pauses.

Photos from your phone camera or gallery (resized automatically) and PDFs up to 1.5 MB, uploaded in the app or sent to our WhatsApp number once you link it in Settings. Photos and PDFs that contain text, like most e-invoices, are read automatically. For a scanned PDF, take a photo instead or type the details. Email forwarding is coming next.

Files and entries are stored with Cloudflare, and documents are read by Cloudflare’s AI service. You can export everything and delete your account at any time from Settings. Details are in the privacy policy.

No. AI only suggests. Nothing counts in your totals until you approve it, and every change is logged.
